Based in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Hi guys I'm an American expat living in the Middle East for two years. I'm an avid traveler and though I haven't been surfing for long I do have a 4.89 Uber rating and great reviews on my Airbnb profile :) I love learning about new cultures, people, food. I love traveling and living abroad and hope to do so for many years. I like to work out, practice Yoga, read, write short stories, tell long stories, laugh and get others to do the same.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I believe in traditional hospitality which is hosting strangers and giving them a warm and welcoming experience as they journey. I've been very fortunate to encounter amazing people during my travels and am keen to extend the same kindness I've received.
